| OK, besides the use of the possessive apostrophe throughout making the quiz appear laughably amateur, there are some serious flaws here. First, If you're gonna go by composer, then Green Day is incorrect for the Simpsons Movie. Danny Elfman composed that theme, and you're wholly justified in placing it in a "movie" quiz, but Green Day arranged (at most) that recording, not composed it. No justification for that by your own standards. Second, using the two MIDI recordings (I couldn't tell if Rocky was MIDI or not because the sample was so low quality) makes this quiz appear more amateurish, especially the Jurassic Park sample. What is that, a marching band arrangement? Come on! Show John Williams some courtesy. Lastly, the Lion King, Avatar, and Gladiator samples hardly qualify as "main themes." If the Lion King has a main theme, it's the "This Land" theme, not the African chanting (which, for the record, was composed by Lebo M. and not Hans Zimmer. So you're either incorrect in sampling the main theme or identifying the composer of your sample.) Gladiator doesn't really have a main theme, I've heard Zimmer say there are as many as 40 recurring motifs, and while the one you chose is memorable, it only appears once. Hardly a main theme. And the Avatar music is just a random sample of atmospherics. Hardly a thematic selection, that.
It's a real nice idea, and with some work it could get there, but I can't believe this has been an "editor's pick" with so many flaws. |
